Roxanne was a super-star in helping us find our new apartment. Its very challenging to get a new place while competing with all the students arriving in Sept, but she made it happen! I would highly recommend her services to anyone.

I had the pleasure of working with Samara for 2 properties both on the buying side and selling side. For my first property, it was my first time ever buying a home and Samara was excellent at guiding me every step of the way. I am a very impatient person and an anti-procrastinator so I need things to be done right away. Samara was always responsive and was on top of deadlines and paperwork. She always informed me with all the details so I can make an educated decision. When I was ready for an upgrade, I knew I had to contact Samara because I really liked her professionalism. If you ever dealt with contractors who dont show up or take shortcuts, just know that Samara is the opposite of that. I can trust that Samara will deliver and never lie about what she knows and what she doesnt know.When I was selling my property, Samara delivered the same results as she did when I was buying. She was very accommodating in showings, times, and sanitization especially because I was selling during Covid.After 2 encounters, I had to choose Samara to buy my second property with and I am sure it wont be the last.

My boyfriend and I worked with Zackery Hurts to find a new apartment that met all of our needs within our price range. Zack was responsive, efficient, and very helpful in answering any questions we had. I would recommend working with him and Centre Realty Group to anyone looking to rent or buy!

Had one of the best customer experiences of my life working with Alexandra Medina. She is the most professional and personable agent I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Helped my family and I quickly find new tenants on a very short notice and made the entire process a breeze. Would absolutely recommend working with her as she was super responsive and reliable throughout the entire process. We are already planning to work with her throughout our other properties! Thanks again Alexandra and happy new year!

Before choosing a real estate agent, I conducted a lot of research to see who would be the best agent based on my needs. Im very pleased with my decision to purchase my first property alongside Nabil Alabed. Nabil made the purchasing process smooth. Hes punctual, honest and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend him to everyone.

I highly recommend Emily Schwartz from Centre Reality Group! She was very understanding and was able to answer all of our questions in a very timely manner. We appreciate all the effort she put in, providing us with video tours and pictures before we saw the places in person and even found a few other places for us that met our criteria. Very professional and helpful (especially to first time renters like my roommates and I.)

Lazaire Delisca is one of the best realtor I have ever met. He is really professional and gives you the best advice to move forward with whatever the process buying, renting, and /or selling. Work with him and you will understand what I am saying.

I can’t speak for all agents for Centre Realty Group but I had a great experience working with Alexandra Medina. She was very responsive and professional; she could quickly answer any of my questions I had about the unit. I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a place in East Boston to speak with her to find a place. 10/10 would apartment hunt with her again :D

Roxanne Sarotic helped us find a new apartment in Cambridge area, was amazing across the board. Went above and beyond for us and we are super grateful.3 years before this I got help from Nabil when I needed to find a place quick because of a new job I had and he was also awesome. I know there are some negative reviews on here but dont let that fully sway your judgement, there are some great folks working here.

My boyfriend and I worked with Emily Schwartz to find an apartment for this fall. She was great to work with! She was always quick to get back to us with answers to any questions we had, and really listened to what we were asking for in an apartment. She showed us multiple great options, and was really easy to talk to about what we did and didnt want after viewing a few spots. She made the application process quick and easy, and as stress free as possible. Id highly recommend Emily to anyone searching for a new place.

I had been in the works to purchase a home for over a year but would always back out. Didn’t feel like previous real estate agents that I met had my back. Then I found Nabil at CRG. Nabil managed my first home buyers anxiety wonderfully. Was patient, responsive to all my late worries, efficient and present. He even answered my calls, scheduled viewings with his coworkers and submitted offers while on vacation! He would spend full days and weekends with me. Nabil was also honest and straightforward based on what he knew I wanted and didn’t want. I couldn’t have had an easier and smoother experience. BUY YOUR HOME AND WORK WITH NABIL!!

Emily Schwartz with Centre Realty Group was amazing to work with. She listened to all of my apartment needs and made sure I fully understood the application process. She was there to answer any and all of my questions and was available at all hours of the day. Not only was she professional and friendly, she really understood the real estate market and was very familiarized with the inventory out there. I would highly recommend her to any looking to buy, sell, or rent in the greater Boston area!

I work for a Veterans agency out of Boston, MA that works on getting Veterans into housing all across Eastern, MA. For the last year I have been working with Tim Andreev at Centre Realty and I couldnt say enough amazing things about him. Thanks to his hard work he has been able to connect dozens of Veteran families into affordable housing opportunities across Boston. He is always available, quick to respond, and consistently goes out of his way to ensure all the needs of the Veterans I work with are met. All around a great broker and guy. I couldnt recommend him highly enough!!!

I highly recommend Nabil Alabed. He was professional and patient through out the process of purchasing a new construction. We had plenty of questions as it was our first time and he was very responsive, got all of our questions answered in a timely fashion, and went above and beyond with negotiating on our behalf. Not only did he help us find a home but he made sure that all of our needs were met. He exceeded my expectations, therefore I highly recommend him and will be using him for future purchases.

I had the opportunity to work with Alessandra (one of the leasing agents) at this company. She communicated with me right away and knew exactly what I was looking for. She was very professional and answered every question I had by either talking me though it or, asking someone from her teamI would work with her and this company again!

This company poaches listings. If you find an apartment with CRG, please look for the address on other websites. It is likely listed directly by the landlord who has NOT hired CRG and will NOT charge you a broker fee. Do this ESPECIALLY if you find the listing on Zillow.My experience with CRG was terrible. There were issues with the payment that they would accept, with no regard as to what the landlord would accept. I was moving from out of state so this was truly terrible.The documents were not sent in an organized manner but spread over time and we were often given very little time to sign them. The lease was incorrect the first time we signed it and we were forced to sign it again. The only service they provided was to open the door to the apartment so that my friend could see the place. Otherwise, they played an annoying and erroneous middle man. When I complained to them, they got angry and wrote aggressive e-mails, trying especially to make me look bad to my landlord.

Their people rip off local photographers after they fulfill their end of the deal. If this is how they treat vendor-to-vendor relationships, Id be extremely cautious as a client. Other reviews speak for themselves. Deal with caution.

I dont see what the bad reviews were talking about. My dealing with them was very nice and helpful . I would definitely do business with this company. Some times you can have a bad experience with one agent at a company great thing is you can just pick another one. Happy hunting everyone

If only zero stars was a possibility. This is the most unprofessional company I have ever worked with. They do not respond to clients or agents, it almost seems like they dont want to rent their properties! Principle Jack Foster is the most incompetent broker on the face of the earth, it is amazing this business even exists.

0 stars for sure, I have the worst experience with them, almost no maintenance and they ignoring my calls and massages its difficult to communicate with them . I found mouse in my apartment and they did not take the issue seriously also I pay for heating and the radiators not working which its hard to live with in Boston winter. Also, the bell is not working, no fire alarm .Moreover, the maintenance worker dismantled the cabinet and left it since 2 months and until now Im waiting !!!!!

There is no option for 0. Experience with CRG was not great. And by not great I mean literally a horrible, terrible experience from beginning to end. I will never work with them again and encourage everyone to avoid CRG if possible for your own well-being and sanity.

Ive now used Katherine Meisenheimer twice to buy / sell homes and both experiences have been fantastic. Katherine is a great communicator, very responsive to text messages and calls and extremely knowledgable about all things real estate. Ive recommended Katherine to friends of mine and they were just as happy with her as I have been.Most recently, I sold a house in Waltham and bought in Wilmington in July 2018. We saw a lot of houses and Katherine was always ready to meet me with a smile on her face and a keen eye for details, watching out for what homes might need work, like a new roof or updated electrical; some of the things that might slip past a person searching for houses. She made sure to use the most of our time by making sure we focused on my must have list (and after all of those houses, they started to blur) and finally, helped me structure a creative offer in a very competitive market to snag me a gorgeous new house. Bottom line - Katherine is straightforward, organized, knowledgeable and a joy to work with; Id recommend Katherine to anyone!

Just a circus show. 7/11/2017 is the date I write this review. Well talk about the customer service first. When you call the most busiest women in the world answers in a tone that cries out I am so sick and tired of this job then every time a legitimate issue is brought up (issues such as company sponsored application forum for an applicant is missing all contact info, or the actual name is spelled wrong which leads to an applicants credit history to be non-existent which is impossible since these guys are grad students who live in the united states and wrote in their social security numbers) the longest sigh of women who just given birth and was forced to go to work the next day would be heard. I would give no stars, a 0. but I dont think I can even give a no star review.Second well talk about their agent. Calls 90% of the time go straight to voicemail. 100% of the calls to voicemail will no be addressed. 75% chance your text will be answered, 100% your email will be addressed in 1-2 business days.Thirdly most landlords essentially ask for first, last, security. No problem, grad students sent checks to the CRG and an escrow check goes to the landlord. Except it writes in ten times the amount. Random Example for anonymity 2000 x 3 is 6000. wrote in sixty thousand on the legal line of the escrow check. 3 emails later trying to explain that even if you write 6000 in the box on the right hand side of the check it cannot say sixty thousand on the legal line next to it.This took a long long time. I am also saddened that these people can vote.To renters: most applications and leases are provided by the RHA sponsored by the greater Boston real estate housing authority, chances are the landlords has them. Run your own credit (for free) and send it to your prospective landlord. Use zillow, craigslist, spend a few hours looking for the place you are going to live in the next year, dont put that power in anyone elses hands.Edit: on the agents issue, he blocked my number. Called 3 times with the company phone to tell him where to drop off the new check, called with my personal phone and instant connection. Just one hell of a circus show.

0 stars - absolutely horrible experience. Poor/inconsistent communication, total boiler room/bait-and-switch operation.Attempted to rent a 3 bedroom unit in downtown Watertown. Took our deposit and signed lease on July 3rd, never gave us a countersigned copy, claimed that the landlord was out of town and would sign and return the following week. Confirmed CRG cashed the check on 7/7. Agent went radio silent on us for 2+ weeks (email, text, phone) then on 7/24 told us the landlord backed out of the rental agreement and that we didnt have the unit. Now fighting to get our deposit (first and security) back from CRG.Avoid at all costs.
